VW Golf R32 timing chain replacement part 2. More work is needed... Is it worth?

- Опубликовано: 26 июн 2023
- Welcome to part two of the R32.
In their first video I open up the engine from the timing side to see what happend. It wasn't only a stretch chain on the end , but broken guids as well. After an overall look the R32 needed a bit more than just a chain kit. After I finished the base job + more components the car ended up on the ramp for some more work.
What is all worth?

One of the best channels on youtube and I am a Honda guy through and through😂😂
One of the best sounding engines ever made 😌
Great video. Really like hearing your assessment of the issues and your suggested solutions. Your approach of using the best parts, in my opinion, is the best way to go for the owner. For a few extra quid the results are so much better. Looking forward to your next video.
You guys are great!! Im an american vag tech!! with my own shop on the west coast of the u.s. We don't have the rust problems here!! and every R32, s4 W8 passat!! is worth the repair!!! I still drive an 81 mk1 DASHER/PASSAT Wagon1.9aaz diesel, at least twice a week!!! and my b5.5 W8 4 motion wagon as the daily!!! I missed your videos!! Im glad your back!!!
Great videos. Great to see you guys back after the big workshop refurb
I am pleased that you've come back and made RUclips a better place with your content. Thank you, much appreciated.
It's great to have you back making videos again. I really like the way you do all the "while we're in there" jobs which definitely save money in the long run.
Fantastic video, your ability to breakdown and more importantly rebuild such a complex beast is Truly remarkable
Glad you're back! Great channel, missed it. Keep up the good work!!
The workshop looks amazing
Really appreciate the fact that you took the time to give an appraisal of the vehicle which gives anyone who is considering purchasing one, an idea of what to look out for. Excellent video.
Great video, and great to see you back.
Awesome video, just as usual👍 hats off to the owner for ta,ing on the project, true enthusiast who picked the right guys to revive his car 👌👌
Great to have ye back guys ye were missed
Thanks for sharing love watching you guys work, absolute legends 👊👊👊
The only person that has a valid opinion of whether this car was worth it is the guy paying the bill. If he is happy, then all is good.
Great video! You can't put a price on happiness. As long as the owner is happy, the money well spent! Keep up good work.
great stuff, fantastic content and honest with it! Workshop looks great! Dog is happy too!
I had to sell my Audi s4 b6 because I couldn’t find anyone here in rural Australia to work on it. I miss that car to this day and wish I could have brought it to you.
Hi Bud
Your videos are superb, your very good at what you do & very thorough going through the job, your honesty also is second to none, just had my son's Audi A3 3.2 V6 completely done the same but also needed new exhaust etc, company in my town called MRC Tuning.. I watched your videos & even spoke to you to bring it to you to do, but due to time restraints & distance went with MRC Tuning Ltd, I know a few lads there who worked on it, absolutely love the car & sound, but your very unique.. truly genuine awesome work fella 👍👍
Impressive mechanical skills and excellent video production and presentation..thanks for sharing...
Top work as USUAL. Brembo and pagid is OEM! Both are very good.
Great honest opinion on your video, nice work 👍🏻
Man I am loving your channel! I particularly like this R32 videos! I own an R32 myself and I love hands on work. I wish I could service my car too myself but I have a disability (no arms) so a lot of repair guys in my country try to overcharge me. I watch and learn as much as I can about servicing cars so I can avoid getting scammed
Spare bolts? That’s a bad thing? I thought that was standard operating practice! You guys are doing a lot of great work on this ride! Definitely a passion project and hopefully the owner will continue the process.
Great work as always!🔥👏🏽
Cheers guys for taking the time👍👍
That was a bargain but regards shout out to owner going for your recommendations this is totally due to the fact that you guys are Rick solid on your work ethic
Congratulations
soundtrack is sick mate. a pleasure
Another fantastic job again
Superb, as expected and as usual...❤
Hi I love your videos and your input as you went. I had many vw golf's and even a golf R, I ended up selling it and I buy a A3 3.2 VR6, for the money and the sound you get from a VR6 engine, it's hard to beat. Plus I think VR6 will go up in price in the future. My A3 I have decided not to ever sell it. My wife drives a mk6 tdi golf with dsg, it's a great car, my son drive a mk 4 tdi golf, and my other Audi is a Q7 4.2 tdi and it broke the timing chains, 183,000 kms, ( I check not clocked) 17 bend valves, 27 broken roller rockers, lots of damage, I going to weld up the upper sump, as the boss for a chain guide, got ripped off. It's been a pig of a job, but I hope to get it running again. I got a quote to do just the timing chains and guides and some seals, was $9500.00 new zealand dollars, and if anything else was found to be damaged would be a extra. So I been doing it myself, so far spent around $5000. For parts and head work. So once again I thank you for your videos as it help me work on my audi lemon.
Amazing work as always.
When I leave Bmw and buy a vw or Audi,the only garage I will use.
Awesome video !
great work 👌🏼
Interesting what is considered OEM pads across the world. Your side of the world is Pagid oem. Pagid in Soutrh Africa is aftermarket yet TRW currently is OEM, but we can buy TRW embossed aftermarket as well. Thanks for another great video!
Loved the vid keep it up 👍🏻
Great video 😊
AWESOME stuff ❤
Loving it. Looking forward to the B9s. You might have one more coming your way😂
😀 atm daily problems
3 door r32 are rare so its worth saving. Looking back at them they are a special car.
Nice to see you back. The car looks a tad tired, I wonder if the owner of the car will tidy her up. £1800 seems to be an absolute bargain considering what you did. Love the renos on the garage!
On a VW I also like Zimmerman rotors(or Brembo) and Pagid brake pads. The pads have a little better fade resistance.
nice to see something a little different on the channel as I am now too scared to look at a V8 Audi without thinking how much will a VAG technic visit cost to make this run right 😁
Looking forward to them B9 Vehicles.
Great work. Happy owner £££ 😊😊😊
top lad !!haters will hate i also replaced on my Audi a6 v6 TDi 222000 K on clock timing chain cost me parts and labour + vat 2400 last year Everone was saying you are stupid why But them emotions and space i needed then its paid back in 6 months and then old car prices went through the roof i manage to sell it to farmer for 3200 pounds i was happy even i spent 2400 on big job
Excellent…I previously owned a MK4 & MK 5 R32’s…I regret selling the MK4…1800quid sounds super reasonable….
😓
Yes true that's cheap.. I've had my mk4 R32 since 2015 and had the chains done in 2016 and cost me 2k that time including manual gearbox input shaft rebuilt and thermostat housing nd 1 lambda sensor.. so this after many years cheap still
@@sajidqureshi2175 I bought both the Mk 4 & 5 new…sold them at 20000klm & 5000klm respectively…I’m always keen to hear how they hold up mechanically with a few years & kilometres (miles) on them…I was an idiot to move mine on.
@@stevenpike7530 mines on 110k bought at 75k I've had zero issues and it's feels so tough still.. peolle also look at it when I'm driving.. and it's drives so well.. also feels very punchy from low Revs and lots of grunt
@@sajidqureshi2175 Good man…love it…congrats.
£1800 for that job is very good!
Well done on good work. 👍
MY GUY DRIVING THE CUSTO,MERS CAR AND BASHING IT AT THE SAME TIME LOL
|I'm going to look at an R32 tomorrow and it has quite high millage but has been looked after, my only concern is this. It has not been changed yet and its going to be something I will be checking if at all possible for an amateur.
Impatiently waiting 😂
work is always top notch, that price is a steal. clean R32's will go up in price. They was the best of the MK5 golfs.
Hey man. Can you share what are the acceptable crank positions for both 208 and 209? My vr6 is the FSI one with the HPFP.
My chains were changed around a year ago and I have -1 and +5 for banks 2 and 1. And now I get this P0016 error on Bank1. So I wonder if my car was never timied accurately? I get the error randomly but each time it happened was only after driving it for some time and then going slow.
Lastly if it is the adjuster failing, can it be swapped without pulling down the engine ?
Thank you!
Hi is possible to do the job without taking the cams sprockets ?
👏
hi....on my tt MK2 3.2 I made the timing chains and also changed the flywheel (194,000 km) after just 10,000km the flywheel splinters and fiber again,,, why?
Hilarious spare bolt section
What degreaser do you use
Job well done
One question: what brand of dual mass flywheel did you put one the car and if it was LUK did it make any unusual noises after replacement ?
Genuine
@@VAGTechnic cheers!
When you see all the sludge in the oil pick up, it’s just criminal on how this car was cared for. Always loved the VR6 in the Golf GTI with the 6 speed manual, torque was on demand and a fun drive.
same engine mounts as Mk1 TT 3.2?
So I am wondering, you prefer OEM brakes over for instance brembo? I thought brembo is quite good. Best regards
It is , when you buying set up 2k onwards 😀 stock size , genuine premium so far best I had
i bought new brembo discs and pads for felicia and left disc was uneven or something and it shaked when was light braking at high speed and it destroyed 7 wheel bearings 2 ball joints in 5 years, i finally decided to replace it with no name-max gear that works perfectly
@@makantahi3731how expensive were the brembo brakes for the R32?
i do not know for r32 but for skoda felicia was some 20€ per disc@@kingchooet9966
I am your big fan and I am also a mechanic, I would love to work with you, so will I get a job in your company, sir, please tell me and I am from India
For whomever moans about how much it costs to fix a car like that properly remember Dealer prices are outrageously expensive but you get what you pay for, you can obviously do it cheaper but it's a saying do it cheaper do it twice because unfortunately 90% of aftermarket parts quality it's utter shit , in my opinion on the brakes I would have gone with textar instead of factory since even VW uses those for lambos and the price have been about 50% cheaper and probably same or better quality but again you cannot find them locally anywhere in UK they have to be ordered from overseas, other then that what this guys are doing and how they are doing it is absolutely perfect.
So remember you want quality you fork up the cash that's all !
Hiya mate my mechatronics unit is going in my s4 b8.5 can this be fixed or should I just buy a gearbox thanks
You can get the repaired
@@VAGTechnic oh ok could I bring it to you to look at
So that's what you look like without your cap on!
😀
Where abouts are you guys? I have an Audi TT mk2 3.2 v6 (manual) that needs chains doing (and hoping that as the video is one month old can get a similar price) also wondering how long you keep the car for this kind of job
Check our website vagtechnic.Uk currently booking for October , also depends on condition from underneath. Turn few TT down because of sad conditions
How many miles are on your TT? I have one as well ( my second one, switched to a coupe).
@@notthatdrew5818 just covered 88,888 😅
Do you ever get alot A4 3.0 TDI V6 272ps ? Currently 48000 miles on a 17 plate. Are any recommendations
Oil map , more recent oil changes
@@VAGTechnic what do you mean by oil map. Thank you for taking the time out to reply 👍
@@ryanfulton9940I've got the same car 👌🏻
if you chip it you can get a lot more power out of it. Is it chipped already?
@@jamesmedina2062 not yet, I haven’t had it long.
Bang on dinner time
Two extra bolts left over.....? Uh oh 😵💫
Why do you sometimes say quid and sometimes say pound? Aren’t they the same ?
Yes it’s the same
Like saying Dollar and Buck.
That is very cheap for timing chain job.. in Sydney it would be at least twice that much
Looking for a mechanic in Sydney ? 😀
@@VAGTechnic I try and do my car on my own...and only use mechanics for the ultra specialized stuff...but if you know anyone I will keep them in mind.
Yes you should by a Mk4 r32 whilst you can for reasonable money as they are becoming and will be highly collectable - not so much the Mk5.
😀 I’m V8 addicted 🙉
@@VAGTechnic balanced collection means you need one badly or will you watch them go up in value like the rallye- only 1800 mk4 r32 sold in the UK - konig buckets- oz alloys - 3.2 lump -large throttle - variable inlet manifold - body kit - haldex - big brakes (VW threw everything at it, mine is gas flowed with schricks cams na 284 ,its just about the right power to enjoy.
@keyo525 100% correct I have one since 2015 and I absolutely love It.. its feels so special the interior and exterior.. mines is DPB AND 3DR.. I have to say I thjnk its one of VW best ever cars made built quality is excellent and seats are absolutely brilliant ans also the engine is just amazing..
Genuine VW brake discs and pads are not worth it. My VW dealer wanted 200euros just for the set of front brake pads for my Passat B8. That's crazy! Than i bought ATE Ceramic front brake pads for 85euros.
Window repairs….Only vw/Audi is it not uncommon. I remember those kind of repairs in my vw. Its a shame really.

You got to pay to play !
The pagid from eurocarparts requires both left and right foot pressing on the pedal🤣
As I said many times before … it seems to be completely different compound
@@VAGTechnicit probably is. Some of the performance Pagid pads squeak more and take longer to bed in but they have major hard bite to them and they reduce fade better.
It makes no difference what its worth on paper. A new golf R is £50,000ish. If the owner likes that car and wants it to work as intended then fix it and enjoy many miles in it. £1800 is a hell of a lot better than being 50k in debt for a car thats losing value.
You cant compare an R32 to a new R in any way..Those who buy a classic/special car dont do it because they might be cheaper than a new car..Now i think that the total cost landed at 4500?,..but to me it sounds like a bargain.
@@Swemist I wasnt comparing the two cars against each other. Its just a lot of the time with the older cars, Some owners decide the car isnt worth repairing, and they buy a new car. The R32, was the top of the range golf. Now its the R, so I was just getting at the fact that its going to cost them 50k to get a new car, assuming they want a new car, and not just a new to them R32. But yeah I agree the two cars dont compare in any way.
With VAG Technik in your area, you are a LOT better off getting a used car sorted than buying new. You can upgrade the music system easier too. Only down is that the new one has boost and smart phone blah blah blah
Maybe if it was a mk4 r32
Have noticed most bills start with a 4, anyone that can afford to have a monitor that size and lighting like that just for a workshop i would be running a mile
We invest back in to business, we don’t drive expensive lease cars 🤣
Great program completing ruined by somebody's absolutely shocking taste of music. Had to watch most of it on mute.
You have a good taste in keyboards! ;)
I can’t imagine spending so much on a tub like this it obviously has had a hard life
That would have cost a fortune yeah
I recon it was a good investment always worth knowing your engine is 💯 and worked on by great mechanics 🧰
